Tourist

While my Grandma, Uncle and Aunt were out from Montana we took advantage of doing some touristy things that we don't usually do. A group of us headed downtown and explored the Seattle Underground. Now although this wasn't the first time I had done this, it was the first time that I will remember anything from. (The last time we went my grandpa came and I think I was like in 9th grade or something)
There was tons of information and our tour guide did a wonderful job of giving it to us with a "far from dry" delivery full of jokes. It was interesting to find out where many of the names of streets and buildings came from as well as being able to explore just a wee bit. We saw one of the first potty's, sky lights, and some old signs.

After the tour, we headed to Ivars for some fish and chips. The only table big enough to fit the 10 of us was outside with all the birds. Hungry birds none-the-less. We tried to eat quickly and keep the birds away from our food, which was hard when other people kept coming over and feeding the birds with their fries. In the end, Kama decided to join them and held up a few fries for the birds to swoop down and get.
